How to Decorate Drinks for Christmas
- 1). Use frosting to create a design inside clear glasses. When you decorate the inside of a glass, you not only add beauty, but flavor as well. This tip is extremely easy to do. All you need to do is fill a plastic bottle that has a small tip with your favorite frosting and line the inside of the glass. You can create a simple swirl pattern or make intricate Christmas designs. It all depends on how much time you have.
- 2). After you’ve filled your glass, insert a cinnamon stick or candy cane. This simple addition is both affordable and elegant. Not to mention that both of these additions will add wonderful flavor to your Christmas drinks.
- 3). Pipe whipped cream onto cold and hot drinks. A piping bag with a star tip is the best way to decorate Christmas drinks with whipped cream. All you need to do is pipe the whipped cream onto each drink to create a shape similar to a soft-serve ice cream cone.
- 4). Sprinkle on spices or grated chocolate. Nutmeg and cinnamon add wonderful flavor to eggnog, but grated chocolate is perfect for cocoa. In order to finely grate chocolate it’s best to place it in the refrigerator. Otherwise, you end up with a clogged grater. Spices, on the other hand, can be grated quickly and easily with a mircoplane.
- 5). Add colored sugar. It doesn’t matter what type of Christmas drink you plan to decorate; colored sugar adds a nice touch. It also adds a nice contrast to the silky whipped cream.
